I've been following along for a while now and love your work. I'm thinking about ordering a few necklaces for me and some friends for a really small bloggy get together I'm having in Jan for blog friends from WI that I've never met before but are coming to CA to visit me! I'm so excited and want something special for us to keep as a memory of the trip. I love the necklaces I saw you do for the girls for the blogging conference that I saw on Alison from O My Family's blog...create, inspire, blog. Thinking maybe I can get something like that? :) Anyhow...hope I win so I can get some of your beautiful work!

You are so talented.

{B}dreamy said...

Want to hear a really sad story?

Weeks ago I fell madly in love with this necklace. Madly! So, being the helpful wife I am, I sent my husband a link with the specifics. About a month later, I got an email notice from TVP about a store coupon. Score! So, continuing to be the helpful wife, I forward that on to my husband, too. A few days later, he asks me a series of panicked questions about a "certain" necklace. He ordered the wrong one! In fact, he practically ordered a necklace I already have (and love, thank you)! I was super distraught, as he had to cancel the order and consequently lose the discount. It was supposed to be for my birthday...

The end. Sad, huh? But, I still LOVE it! Maybe for Christmas? *B

PS- I blogged, tweeted and facebooked about the giveaway. You can tell how badly I want one ;)

Kristi said...

I tweeted about this give away!

Rachel said...

I just discovered TVP at your grand opening event not too long ago. The jewelry is so beautiful!

Cindy said...

I am the owner of a vintage pearl necklace, courtesy of the best friends a girl can have. I'd love to pay it forward and get a necklace for my mom - who is completely deserving.

Rob and Sarah said...

I am new to your site but love your necklaces and would love to win one!

Unknown said...

I am a new friend, thanks for offering this give away.

Unknown said...

I'm an old friend, but not that old... I want one of these necklaces. Time has been in the way from allowing me to sit down and choose what I would like. We lost our baby when he was a month and a half old due to congenital heart disease. We all miss him so much, especially his sister and brother. We are expecting again and since I will never get a family photo with our Stephen included, physically... I thought a necklace would be awesome, where all my children could be included!!! So pick me, on accident or purpose! Please....

kate telles said...

I have one of your necklaces with my 2 sweet boys names on it but I was recently remarried and gained 2 more sweet boys! They have mentioned several times that I need a "new" necklace with their names too!! I couldnt agree more!

Kimberly said...

I've been around your blog for about a year and I'm going on my 2nd Christmas asking for one of your necklaces. I don't know if my husband will ever buy me one!

Bean Sprouts said...

I'm a new friend! I can't believe I haven't heard of you before, off to find some items I want to add to my Christmas List :)

Kimberly said...

I'm putting it on my blog.

I'd say that I'm a relatively new friend. I ordered the circle necklace last Christmas for my mother-in-law with all of the grandkids names on it. Now, it's my turn! You're work is beautiful!

Unknown said...

I guess you could say 'old' friend - I've been following since January and have ordered a few products. I'd certainly LOVE a gift certificate to order more Christmas gifts!! =)

Stacey said...

I'm new to your site but not new to Nie's! I love your designs and love her other things she's spotlighted from the vintage pearl. I look at it all the time and wish it was in the budget! I had a "B" bracelet I used to always wear, my hubby's first initial. Friends used to laugh because they thought I was a bit like a teenager, but that' how I feel about him, a bit like a teenager in love 11 years later! Anyways, it's lost and I miss having my "b" and would love having my kiddos too now! Hope I win!

Hi Erin,
I am a newbie to your blog and to the blog world actually. I love reading about joys, fears and inspirations. Seeing your necklace around Stephanies fingers brought joy to me.

I haven't ordered yet cuz I can't decide what I want! And I've been reading NieNie for 6 mos. now and I give her kudos. I am always amazed at what live has handed her and her nature through it all. The strongest woman I've ever "met". I don't know if I could do it. Love you NieNie.

My MIL sent me one of your necklaces for my birthday. It's a medallion that says mother and some adorable adjectives with one little pearl. I wear it all of the time.

I can't afford to get myself a personalized one, and I want to so desperately, especially because my 2 sweet girls have the kind of name that would just look charming on one of your amazing pieces.
